Miss Botswana's car PIC: KENNEDY RAMOKONE

In what has turned out to be a broken promise, Miss Botswana 2021/22 Palesa Molefe will no longer get to own a Mercedes Benz C200 as announced during the sponsorship launch in August.

Miss Botswana organisers revealed a few months ago that this year’s queen will walk away with a Mercedes Benz C200 courtesy of new car dealer, Magariland. But now instead of owning the car Molefe will get a car sponsorship from Magariland which will transport her during her entire reign. After her reign she will return the Golf 7 Tsi she is currently using to the car dealer.

During a sponsorship handover yesterday, the organisers announced that besides the car sponsorship, Molefe will walk away with a cash prize of P100,000 divided into P50,000 cash and P50 000 worth of monthly benefits.

BDP primaries leave a lot to be desired

The BDP as a party known to have ample resources has always held its primaries well in time, but this time around that was not the case. The first leg of the primaries was held last weekend, with the final leg being billed for the coming weekend. This time around, the BDP failed to shine in its primary elections. The elections were chaotic; most if not all polling stations didn't open at the specified time of 6am. Loyal BDP members braved the...
